my favorite thing in the whole world about dogs is they can sense that you aren't feeling good....this dog has been by my side every single second for the past week, loving me. she usually always does, but more so since i havn't been feeling good.
by the way, i cant wait to get back into my workout routine, i need it so bad...i feel SOO much better when i work out in the morning....im hoping this thing goes away for good here sooon!!!

a WEEEKEND!!!!

you know....When I worked at Nordstrom I used to almost cringe when customers used to tell me to have a good weekend.....now......ahhhh.....it's the greatest feeling ever! I almost don't know what to do with myself!! If not apparent enough, my last day at Nordstrom was Thursday and my first (actually 3rd) but first official day at Enhance was Friday! I officially don't work for Nordstrom anymore....which is nice, but sad too.

My last day at Nordstrom, everyone was there....it was nice. My whole department was there even on their day off. It kinda sucked though because I have been in so much pain because of my tooth I didn't get to eat much, but I felt loved!
So....Monday I was eating some peanuts and then all the sudden my tooth started hurting....I kinda just brushed it off, until it started hurting so bad in the middle of the night that I couldn't sleep. I woke up on Tuesday and had to take Allen to turn in all his guard applications and then came home before I had to be to work and was in so much pain. I called work and told them I was going to go the dentist because my mouth started getting swollen. After waiting 2 hours in the lobby at the dentist I hate ( I hate all dentists, but I really hate this one ) he told me he had to refer me to a specialist and gave me antibiotics. Because I was 2 hours late to work, I didn't go turn in my prescription, and went to work.....bad idea. After work I went to go pick it up and they said I had to have an insurance card, which they have never given me and have always told me just to give my social. That didn't work....I automatically just get really upset....I wasn't feeling good at all. I was freeezing when everyone was roasting hot, my tooth hurt like crazy and I just broke down. My co-worker and friend came to Walgreens where I was and gave me some of her antibiotics and pain meds she had and I went home.

The first night of pain, I closed at work....

The next morning (Wednesday)...yeah, I still went to work

After going to work looking like this...I almost had to beg to leave (all my co-workers were telling me just to leave, but I wanted to make sure it was ok with the boss). This pic is right before going to the dentist the second time. I called a family friend dentist to see if he would see me the same day and they said come right in. Best dentist I have ever been to. He drilled me a little to get some of it to drain and then sent me home with another prescription for antibiotics and vicodin es. Not recommending anyone take that!!! I've never have taken any drugs, but on Friday I swear I was coming down from a high or something. I swear there were tons of little dogs at my feet running around. Havn't taken any since. Thank goodness I was at the new job with my dad next door I was able to go lay down and sleep it off on my lunch.



Thursday morning after 2 doses of antibiotics. Went to work and stayed the whole day because it was my last day.

Friday afternoon....didn't feel so hot this morning after taking vicodin, but feeling much better now! Swelling going down tremendously!!


Here are some pics from my last day at work....my face is huge!! :(

Good News!

So yesterday wasn't too bad of a day. On my way to work Lanie called me to tell me that her and Jared are preggo again! (which is why the reason for the picture) So their family is growing again. Really exciting, but sad at the same time since they now live in Utah and I will not be able to see the bell grow. I hope it is a girl this time! We need some more girls in this family.
Then on my lunch break I opened my paycheck...to my surprise, I got the raise I thought I was going to have to wait 6 months for. I've been in the Customer Service department almost 2 months now and am already topped out for my pay. It is so ridiculous how little the top pay is for our department.
Then after work we went to Fry's to check out any new deals they had for this week. What do we see? A lap top for $499. Ive been wanting one for a long time and I thought that I was going to get one on Black Friday but we ended up getting the 52 inch HDTV. Soo...we bought my early Christmas gift. I love it. I'm sitting on the couch typing :) wo0ho0.
All the Christmas decorations are not all out yet....maybe tomorrow after work....

Christmas is soooo soon!!!!

So I think I will join in the fun...who knows how much time I will have to post on this thing, but 3 years ago or so I used to have something like this that I wrote in everyday. It was so fun to go back and read, so I thought I would give it another try. Thanks Aud :)
So the last few days I have been sick...but even though I have been sick....I am so determined to get up all my Christmas decorations before I feel like its too late!! So...it took me a couple days....because everything I did took all my energy. I finally got my REAL tree!! This will be my 3rd Christmas away from home and the last 2 years I have put up a fake tree...which acording to me, is horrible!!! So this year I finally begged and got my real Christmas tree!! It sat in my living room bare for a day or 2 because I was too tired and sick to do anything with it. After working and working....I got off at 4:30 on Saturday....I got something to eat, fell asleep about 6 to 7 (allen says 8 but it was 7 :D) then I woke up and took a bath, and went back to bed till about 11:30 on Sunday morning. It was a well needed sleep and I felt like I was actually going to live through the day :) So, needless to say, I am feeling better, still a little stuffy, but better.
So we finally decorated the tree tonight! yay!
